Cozumel Horseback Riding

Has anyone done this horseback riding tour in Cozumel? If so, how is it, and if not, what are other options? I will probably be sailing on Carnival Cruise Lines in September, since that appears to be significantly cheaper than Royal Caribbean through AAA.

Sorry, I forgot to mention above that Carnival does not appear to have any horseback riding excursions for Cozumel.

Never mind. I checked Carnival's website and they have a horseback riding excursion in Cozumel.

I have personally never done that excursion, BUT...a couple of 20 somethings that we met 3 weeks ago on our cruise DID do that excursion. They weren't too thrilled with it overall. She had ridden before he hadn't.

I am not typically a fan of horses but I recently did an excursion in Cozumel that involved bike riding for approx. 6 miles, 1 hour on horseback through the jungle, and 45 mins. of snorkeling up the coast from Chankanaab. It included lunch and the guide was an American transplant.

We did the horseback riding in Cozumel with Cozumel-Watersports, they had it packaged with an all inclusive beach break, was awesome!

Thanks everyone. I seem to have it narrowed down to 2, but they seem to be the same one, or at least departing from the same location. The first one is this one and the second is this one. I know there's always the excursions through the cruise line, but I've found that's more expensive. Depending on prices of the actual cruise if and when I go, I'm either going on Carnival or Royal Caribbean.

Jimmie, where is this tour on their website? I don't see it listed unless I'm missing something.

Never mind. I think I found it. Is it the one at Mr. Sancho's Beach Club?

I haven't done this specific tour, but I will give a very good recommendation for Adventuras Naturales. WE did a jeep tour with them that my husband rates as one of his favorite shore excursions anywhere. The guide was wonderful (American) and the day was so much fun. Again, can't speak for their other products but our experience with them was good.
